May Luncheon - Speed Networking - Don't Forget Your Business Cards!

One of the benefits of Chamber membership is promotion and advertising. So here is your chance to deliver your message, face to face, to a minimum of 14 individuals. Each person at a table of eight has two minutes to get their message across to the other seven people at your table. Just explain what you do and how you do it! You are also encouraged to distribute brochures or samples. Don't forget to bring your business cards!

After all eight people at your table have had two minutes, everyone moves to another table. For those of you who have associates, you can maximize this opportunity by sitting at separate tables and thereby reaching twice as many people with your message.

If you don’t want to use the time talking about your business or products, you can talk about your special interests and passions (within reason!). So come prepared to promote your business, make new contacts, and meet new people. Bring brochures, coupons, samples, and business cards.

Does it seem a little intimidating? That’s ok, everyone is a little intimidated the first round but you will catch on and end up having a great time; so relax and enjoy it! Come to Connect, Communicate, and Collaborate!

Lunch will be provided by Stocktons Restaurant. We hope to see you there!
